Quick take

A retractable tape measure that attaches to a fly fishing net handle with an adjustable strap and carabiner zinger.

This is a retractable 40-inch (100 cm) tape measure on a carabiner zinger, paired with an adjustable neoprene strap that wraps a landing net handle. Mounted on the net, it lets you measure a fish while it is still in the mesh, which suits catch-and-release fly anglers. The camouflage and black strap closes with hook-and-loop and weighs about 29 grams.
